November 2011 in pictures


    How many of these beautiful gloomy girls have you seen in
    downtown Athens?

    A guy selling salep on the streets.
    I regret for not buying a cup, so to support this tradinional beverage!

    On a Sunday, me and the boyf had lunch in Kouzina;
    good food with that extra something to make it a little more special
    than the ordinary, 100% recommended!

    We went for the 20E menu, which turned out a pretty good deal
    for what we got:

    Devine feta dumplings with pomegranate sauce...

    A green salad to each of us...

    Boyf got the spaghetti dish with cherry tomatoes and rusk bits...

    I got the chicken with figs and mashed potatoes...

    And to finish our meal, we got some delicious goat cheese tart
    with raspberries. Now I need to find a recipe for it!

    Out for a beer with a friend.

    It feels so peaceful to walk around Athens at night, when the streets
    are almost deserted and so quiet... 

    I'm probably a minority for admitting this, but I really envy the guy
    who stays at the 3rd floor of this old building :(

    Shaky pic of a pretty familiar sight: an Athenean yellow cab,
    Monstiraki square and the omnipresent Acropolis.

    I went to the much hyped and anticipated River West mall...

    To be honest, it left me completely indiferent...

    However, I absolutely loved this cute display ;)

    Steamed spinach introduced to my usual pasta... 
    This combo's a keeper!

    Kataif from Kosmikon... 'Nough said!

    Betty Crocker cupcakes... I could try harder than that but they tasted
    ok, so who cares? hehe

    I finally got my hands on a big Toblerone bar- probably my fave
    chocolate bar ever! What's yours?

Wow, more than half of these pics are food related...
Am I growing into those people that only talk about food? haha

I wish you all a happy New Year's Eve!
Hugs and kisses  xx xx

  4. Επιτέλους κι άλλος άνθρωπος που του αρέσει "Το κουζίνα" γιατί οι περισσότεροι το κατακρίνουν λόγω του φαγητού του· όχι γιατί δεν είναι καλό, αλλά γιατί δεν είναι "κανονικό" όπως λένε. Το λατρεύω αυτό το μαγαζί!!!

    xxx Marie!

  15. Aww thank you so much doll, it means a lot to me! Toblerone tops all chocolate bars, IMO. The big 400gr bar is a regular request of mine to relatives travelling with airplane- και τα τσουρέκια του Τερκενλή, αχ εσείς οι Θεσσαλονικείς μας έχετε κακομάθει! xx
